Can anybody help me figure out how to customize the Google Navigation images? More specifically, I'm trying to change the navigation "arrow" that represents you as you move around the map. I've made the icons but don't know how to get it back into the program successfully. I've tried just installing straight up, I've tried resigning with Signapktic, and I've tried just restoring with My Backup Pro. None of these work. I've even tried just replacing the com.google.android.apps.xxxx.apk with my new apk. I'm at a loss. Is this just impossible?
I've looked around XDA and a few other forums but haven't even been able to find the slightest mention of anyone else trying to do this. I have a hard time believing I'm the only one who would want to customize this??
I don't think it's impossible because I've seen it done on gps's all the time. Maybe try resigning it on your computer then push it through ADB?
yikes, I never really figured out how to sign it on the computer. I'll read up to learn how and see how it goes. worse case scenario is I learn something

You may have heard that blizzard released their mobile authenticator for android via the android market.
Now the thing i was wondering is where serial is stored.
In the java emulator it was stored in a xxxx.db file, and in iphone in an xml file,
correct me if i'm wrong though.
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Serial>US-1234-5678-9123</Serial>
<Token>AQIDBAUGBwgJCgsMDQ4PEBESExQ=</Token>
<TimeDifference>-631</TimeDifference>
</Authenticator>
or this is perhaps an xml file to compile it for iphone/touch,
anyway, there is (or has to be) a way to change the serial , i've been looking in every xml or db file on my G2 but no succes yet, perhaps anyone else have found something?
I've encountered some difficulties with using the Blizzard Mobile Authenticator on my rooted handset. Seems it treats mine differently to a non-rooted handset and can be unusable. I've reported the problems on the official WoW forums here.
Regarding changing the serial code, why is this ever necessary? You can view it through the applications controls should you ever need to look it up. And you can always replace the authenticator on your account.
high class problem... i dont know it

Haha, I answered my own question yesterday. Forgot to unlink my phone from my account before wiping it for a ROM update, and had to call Blizzard for help. It's lucky I had my original serial code written down. I can now see the value in being able to cause a fresh authenticator to behave like an older one.
This is something that has been talked about on another thread over at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=557862
But from what I have been able to get, the data is stored in the file:
/data/data/com.blizzard.bma/shared_prefs/com.blizzard.bma.AUTH_STORE.xml
Now, how the token file is encoded... I can't say. Haven't gotten to that part yet.

dont mean to bring up a super old thread, but i couldnt find any answers (the post linked here shows how to read the serial from file, but not how to make it persistant or change it to something else) (sorry if its preferred to make a new thread to ask the question, seems like every forum prefers a different method, and this one seemed to be pretty spot on for what i was wondering)
I wanna try out different roms but keep the serial persistant. I could on my iphone by backing up the authenticator in itunes.
but even backing up app+data in titanium back up leaves me with a different serial.
Is there any way to get a backup with a persistant serial in it? I really dont want to leave my account unsecured, I dont want to have to carry around an extra keychain but im not going to deattach and reattach the authenticator every time i want to flash a rom.

was hoping in titanium bkup.. but seems they wrot aint workin.. sooooooo any suggegstions?
Finally gound an app to change my boot screen! Also allows you to change fonts, manage files back up apps with data etc... "absolute system" from the market
Let me know how you get on...
Absolute System
Learn how to do it for free.
I will in time but whilst I'm trawling through the related threads to learn at least I found an easy fix for now I hope it will also help new comers and people that don't have an interest in learning but still want to change bits about the appearance... either way I think it was a good find and well worth sharing
Hello guys,
Since 3 days now I can't start any purshased app (only see the loading screen then close itself) and I can't buy any app on marketplace, even free apps, always get 80004005 error...
I really don't know wt* is going, I don't have touched my registry (ok just the device name for testing but I set it back to OMNIA7).
Only sideloaded apps works. :/
I already tried to resynch the Live account but don't solve.
Anyone have an idea ?
Thanks.
Changing the device name is one of those NO SERIOUSLY DON'T MESS WITH THIS registry values - I thought the handful of places that ever recommended doing so had put up warning to that effect a while ago, but maybe not. It appears to break the DRM scheme the marketplace uses.
As for things to change... I assume you've tried rebooting the phone already? Also, make sure the registry value is exactly what it used to be, case sensitive and so forth.
In worst case, a hard reset will completley fix it. Registry changes are, fortunately, just in the Flash storage and are wiped in a hard reset.
Yeah.. I did a backup and reseted the phone, now it works.
And I lost all my SMS one more time.
I really wish there was a good way to back those up. It's difficult to extract and restore the SMS store.
Hi ninjy,
this is a problem of the marketplace at the moment.
I got many emails from users that have this problem with my app Week View.
I wrote something about it on my blog: http://www.hannesbiribauer.com/wordpress/?p=800
The problem is also disussed in the Ms answers forum and there is a thread for it in the WPDevFeedback Forum: https://wpdev.uservoice.com/forums/110705-dev-platform/suggestions/7168298-provide-fix-for-c101a7d1-when-updating-80004005-w
greetings,

Simple enough. After a long time of searching here and elsewhere, I have found no way to install the official HTC_IME keyboard on a ROM that doesn't already have it. Any attempts to do so just cause a Force Close upon trying to interact with it in any way.
And do not bother saying "just try _____ instead". If I wanted to try a different keyboard, I wouldn't be posting this thread.
I have a logcat that says "Unable to instantiate activity ComponentInfo", which I read is a problem with activities not being defined in AndroidManifest.xml. But unfortunately, the AndroidManifest.xml that comes with HTC_IME is junk. Trying to open it in any program either shows you what looks like non-western encoding, or it won't open it at all.
If anybody has any insight, that would be delightful. Either something I could try to make it work, or providing the logcat that shows all the errors that popped up, or something. Anything to finally get the Sense 3.5/3.6 HTC_IME working on our phones.
If nobody has any idea about this, does anybody at least know how I might go about figuring out any aspects of this problem besides the shot-in-the-dark Googling I've been doing trying to figure this out?
Just in case, I have attached the aLogcat file that I saved, filtered by the app to just show errors (which in this case, is only the errors generated by trying to access the keyboard via the Settings menu). If desired, I can generate and attach one for when you try to actually activate the keyboard via the Input Method operation.
I took the HTC IME apk from the HD revolution rom (system/apps) and pushed it onto my sensation's Virtuous Inquisition and I got it working except for the swype part.
I tried that. But unfortunately, CM7 is definitely missing libraries and/or other files needed by the apk file. Virtuous would be likely to have them because it's built from a Sense ROM, as opposed to CM7 most definitely *not* being built from anything but pure Android.
Someone had thought they found all the files needed to use the keyboard, but trying that did nothing for me, which means either more files are needed, or maybe something has to be done with the very messy and nearly uneditable AndroidManifest.xml file. But it seems that nobody on the forums has any idea. I had rather hoped that a developer might at least know, but of course I appreciate any input.
Would this work?
I'm not sure, but I'm certainly going to download it and give it a shot. Whether it works or not, thanks for the heads up. You've reminded me that I should also look around the forums of other qHD HTC phones in case somebody has figured something out in one of those.
Edit: Bah, of course the download link doesn't work. Every time I try, ESET kicks in and complains. Even when I shut it off. And once I finally got ESET to shut up, IE just refused to download the file anyway.
nvm i signed up for swype beta lol.
Hope there is still someone checking in here that could give me some ideas about a little problem I'm having. Running an (obviously) rooted continuum,Ciscogee's deodexed EC09. Everything seems to work just fine, really well in fact, until I flash Trailblazer101's EC09 Everything_SpearoidBLUESOFTKEY.zip. After flashing this, I have problems with the browser FC'ing when trying to open HTTPS links, and I get a Nullpointerexception on a couple apps that working fine before.It seems to have something to do with the CertificateChainValidator. I've tried different Browsers from the Market, and they will open the HTTPS links, but I still get the nullpointerexception on the two apps, one is my mobile banking app and the other is a mobile app for Microsoft Outlook. It's not critical that I have these apps working, but it would be handy! I'm hoping that one of you "code gurus" know a relatively easy fix for this. I think I've attached a screenshot of the crash report, but I'm kinda new at this whole forum thing, so forgive me if I didn't get something right. If anyone has time to look into this and needs more information just let me know! I appreciate any help I can get!!
On a side note: Don't want anyone to think I'm complaining about either of these mods, in fact, even if I can't get this problem fixed I'm still going to use them...the "coolness" factor outweights not having a couple apps working!

The way that I fixed this issue personally was to go into Browser, then Settings, go to the Search Providers, and click "Bing". Let me know if that worked for you!
Thanks Trailblazer, that did fix the browser issue, but still having the FC with the apps. Do you know if the Everything mod changed/moved/removed anything concerning SSL or the Certificate Chain Validator? From what I can see the apps are complaining about something either not being there or already being used by another process, but I can’t even find where it is. To say I know nothing about Linux/Android programming is an understatement, so I'm kinda shooting in the dark Thanks for the help, and I appreciate the work you've done on this phone!

This has been brought up before by other people, and I can assure you that I didn't change anything to do with that, haha... There are a few guesses: I did change the Browser App to remove the "frozen" links and bing as the search provider as default... That modified apk is sometimes included in my packages... You can try restoring the original, but I don't think it'll help.... What fixed everything for me was doing what I said above... The other guess is that there may be something wrong with permissions, idk...
But I can promise you this: I didn't do anything to the Certificate Chain Validator, which in fact is a smali (source) file within the framework file...
Oh well, it's just my mobile banking app... get tired off looking at how much money I DON'T have anyway... and my work email, so no big deal. I have other secured apps that work fine, so it must be something about those two. It's worth not having those just so I'm not always accidentally hitting the ticker history and weather! :thumbup:
